Did much searching to try and diagnose and cant get this figured out.
I parked the car then the next morning went to start and it just cranked over, no start.
I thought it was the fuel pump (replaced 2.5 yrs ago). Checked that and it wasn't getting power when the key was turned to position 2. I had someone turn the key while I listened to the pump, nothing. I tested the voltage and the white/purple wire was not getting any voltage. Checked the wire harness under the rear wheel well. Then checked the inertia switch, it was ok. I unplugged the multifunction unit and jumped 12V+ to the white/purple wire and got the fuel pump to run. So I dont think it is a faulty fuel pump.
Tried to start it with the pump running and it wouldn't start. Then realized that the multi function unit probably needed to be plugged in for it to run. Plugged that back in and jumped the fuel pump from the inertia switch and it still wouldn't start.
Then checked the spark. No spark. Checked all the fuses under the hood, all ok. Checked voltage to the fuse box, all ok. Checked the fuses and voltage on the fuses inside the drivers side, all ok.
This is all very strange. I thought it was the multi function relay, but not sure.
Decided to run my OBDII code reader to see if there were codes and it gives a link error. It wont read.
Another strange thing that has been happening for a few months is when I went to start it and turned the key it would not immediately turn over, then after a few seconds it would crank and start right up. This used to happen maybe 1 out of every 20 times I started it. Not sure if this is related or not.
So to summarize what I have checked:
1) jumped the fuel pump, it runs.
2) no spark when it cranks over
3) no code read on the OBDII reader
4) no check engine light
5) no 12v+ to the fuel pump
6) checked all fuses - all ok
7) checked all voltage at the fuses - all ok
8) battery voltage ok
9) inertia switch ok
10) alarm functions normally, will still lock door, etc.
11) other electrical functions normally - lights, etc.
Any help would be appreciated, dont know what else to check.
